The actor showed up to his alma mater, the University of Southern California, and started DJing for his former fraternity, Sigma Alpha Mu.

Will Ferrell revisited his frat-boy youth by DJing a party at his alma mater, the University of Southern California, where his son Magnus is a freshman.

The SNL alum studied sports broadcasting at USC and joined the Sigma Alpha Mu fraternity.


The comic actor, known for hijinks like streaking on campus when he was a student, appeared to fit right in with the undergrads as he served up beats like Jay-Z and Ye’s “N***** in Paris” and “Eye of the Tiger.”

Ferrell wore sunglasses and a backwards ball cap at the frat house rager.

Here is a clip posted by @barstoolsports on X (formerly Twitter.)

Fans were diggin' it.




At a young age, Ferrell was discouraged from pursuing show business, as he wanted a steady job after growing up in a household where his musician father's paychecks were unpredictable.

Ferrell graduated from USC in 1990 with a degree in sports information, but he knew he did not want to go into broadcasting, especially after not enjoying an internship at a local television station in the sports department.

After a few bungled efforts to keep other jobs, he was encouraged by his mother to pursue what he enjoyed.

So he moved from Orange County to Los Angeles, and successfully auditioned for the sketch comedy troupe The Groundlings, where he honed his improv skills.

The rest is history.

He made audiences laugh as an SNL cast member from 1995 to 2002.

The 56-year-old comic icon has created memorable characters, starring in films like Elf , Anchorman, Kicking & Screaming, Talladega Nights, Blades of Glory, Step Brothers, Get Hard, and most recently, Barbie

Ferrell is a four-time Emmy winner and the 2011 recipient of the esteemed Mark Twain Prize for American Humor.

Tim Walz Has Epic Clapback After Nancy Mace Asks Him To Define 'Woman' During Congressional Hearing

Walz's appearance at the hearing comes amid conservative claims—offered with little supporting evidence—that Somali-run childcare centers in Minnesota improperly received public funds intended to support childcare for low-income families. Subsequently, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the FBI expanded their presence in Minnesota as federal authorities froze childcare funding statewide.

Elmo Just Asked His Followers 'Where Have You Been?'—And Zohran Mamdani Had The Purest Response

Elmo, the furry red childlike monster from Sesame Street designed by Caroly Wilcox, began his life as a generic "baby monster" background filler in the 1979-1980 season of the long-running children's television program.

Originally having a gruff voice supplied by various puppeteers, Elmo found his falsetto-voiced, loving persona when Kevin Clash took over in 1985. Elmo was transformed into a three-and-a-half-year-old character designed to connect with the show's audience of preschoolers.
